1½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut in 2-inch chunks
Coarse salt and pepper
Cooking spray
4 scallions, thinly sliced
4 cups broccoli florets, steamed (for serving)
¾ cup brown rice, cooked according to package instructions (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, sesame seeds and garlic to make the sauce. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, stir egg whites and cornstarch with a fork until combined. Add chicken and season with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet to medium-high and spray with cooking spray. Add chicken and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. (Note: depending on your pan size, chicken may need to be cooked in batches).
Add chicken to sauce mixture, add scallions and toss to coat. Serve with broccoli florets and brown rice, as desired.
Notes
I keep a carton of 100% egg whites on hand at all times for recipes like this. It's really convenient and you don't have to try to figure out how to use the yolk (or waste it!).
